He has to marry her to gain his inheritance, but she wants nothing to do with him.
After his father is laid to rest, Aaron Berkeley, Earl of Graylocke, sets out to void the marriage contract that his father had in place for him. To his dismay, he discovers that he has no choice but to marry Lady Beatrice or else he will lose a vital part of his inheritance. To make matters worse, the contract stipulates that they must marry by his thirtieth birthday, which is only two months away. He resigns himself to the marriage, finding solace in one’s cups.
Lady Beatrice Harford has been in love with Lord Graylocke since she was little. She is elated to finally marry him, and is determined to turn a marriage of convenience into a love match. When Lord Graylocke shows up drunk to their wedding, she is mortified, and has no choice but to call it off. Despite his pleas, she refuses to marry a man who would treat her so callously.
Aaron is determined, though. His usual flirting tactics backfire, however, and he finds himself working harder than ever to win Beatrice’s hand. When she disappears, Aaron must work with his friends to bring her home—and back to him. But can he convince Beatrice that he is worth taking a chance on?

A move across the country... A dowry that turns into a curse... A marshal that captures her heart...
After losing her mother at the tender age of five, all Rose wanted was the love of her father, not his money or the prominence in society that came with his name. But instead of reaching out and giving her the love and affection she so desperately needed, her father drowned his grief in his work, leaving Rose to the care of his servants and staff.
Rose grows into a beautiful and feisty yet serious young woman, but no matter how hard she tries to ignore the emptiness in her heart, it remains. Then, at her father’s untimely death, Rose is sent from the only home she has ever known in Boston to live with her uncle and his family, whom she hasn’t seen in over twelve years.
Terrified of the reception she’ll receive, Rose makes the journey alone and quickly realizes that her late father’s wealth has made her a target for not just journalists with an eye toward revenge but dowry hunters everywhere.
Will her relatives in Colorado take her in with open arms, or was this arrangement forced on them, and would it turn into another disappointment? And, is Rose’s future already sealed by a parade of lies, or is there hope for a happy ending and the healing of her orphaned heart?
